Ticks (Acari: Ixodoidea) are among the most significant blood-sucking arthropods worldwide. In humans, they can cause severe toxic conditions such as paralyses, irritation and allergy. Besides these, they transmit a great variety of infectious diseases caused by viral, bacterial and protozoal agents, including Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) virus. This study was performed for evaluation of received 1562 samples from humans with the complaint of tick bite to National Parasitology Reference Laboratories between January 2011 and December 2013. Ticks were taken directly into 70% alcohol and have been identified under the stereo microscope. It was found that 1497 (95.84%) were ticks, 39 were (2.50%) artifacts such as scab and blood clots, 22 (1.41%) were different arthropods of non-medical importance, 3 were (0.19%) pubic lice (Pthirus pubis), 1 was (0.06%) bedbug (Cimex lectularius). The ticks were identified as follows: 322 Rhipicephalus sangiuneus group, 241 Haemaphysalis parva, 188 Hyalomma marginatum, 175 Hyalomma spp. nymph, 138 Rhipicephalus spp. nymph, 109 Rhipicephalus bursa, 79 Ixodes ricinus, 68 Dermacentor marginatus, 59 H. anatolicum, 52 H. detritum, 17 H. excavatum, 9 Haemaphysalis punctata, 8 Ixodes spp. nymph, 1 Haemaphysalis spp. larva, 1 Haemaphysalis spp. nymph and 1 Argas spp. 29 ticks could not be identified, since they had morphological abnormalities or deficiencies. During January to December, tick bites were reported in all of the months. Most cases were occurred between April and September; 365 (24.38%) cases in June and 298 (19.91%) in July. In recent years, people have become more susceptible to infestations with ticks and other ectoparasites. So, it is concluded that informing the public about ticks, tick borne diseases and teaching them the ways to protect would be useful

Keneler (Acari: Ixodoidea) dünyadaki en önemli kan emen artropodlar arasındadır. İnsanlarda felç, irritasyon ve allerji gibi ciddi toksik durumlara neden olabilirler. Bunların yanı sıra Kırım Kongo Kanamalı Ateşi (KKKA) virüsünün de dahil olduğu viral, bakteriyel ve protozoer etkenler tarafından oluşturulan birçok enfeksiyon hastalığını bulaştırırlar. Bu çalışma Ocak 2011 ve Aralık 2013 tarihleri arasında Ulusal Parazitoloji Referans Merkez Laboratuvarına kene tutunması şikayeti ile başvuran kişilerden elde edilen 1562 adet örneğin değerlendirilmesi için yapılmıştır. Keneler doğrudan %70’lik etil alkol içine alınmış ve stereomikroskop altında teşhis edilmiştir. Bunların 1497’si (%95,84) kene olup, 39’u (%2,50) artefakt (yara kabuğu, kan pıhtısı vb.), 22’si (%1,41) medikal önemi olmayan artropod, 3’ü (%0,19) kasık biti (Pthirus pubis) ve 1’i (%0,06) de tahtakurusu (Cimex lectularius) olarak bulunmuştur. Kenelerin 322’si Rhipicephalus sangiuneus, 241’i Haemaphysalis parva, 188’i Hyalomma marginatum, 175’i Hyalomma spp. nimf, 138’i Rhipicephalus spp. nimf, 109’u Rhipicephalus bursa, 79’u Ixodes ricinus, 68’i Dermacentor marginatus, 59’u H. anatolicum, 52’si H. detritum, 17’si H. excavatum, 9’u Haemaphysalis punctata, 8’si Ixodes spp. nimf, 1’i Haemaphysalis spp. larva, 1’i Haemaphysalis spp. nimf ve 1’i Argas spp. olarak teşhis edilmiştir. Morfolojik bozukluğu veya eksikliği olan 29 kenenin ise tanımı yapılamamıştır. Ocak-Aralık arasında, tüm aylarda kene tutunması vakalarına rastlanmıştır. Olguların, 365’i (%24,38) Haziran ve 298’i Temmuz (%19,91) ayında olmak üzere çoğu Nisan-Eylül ayları arasında bildirilmiştir. Kırım Kongo Kanamalı Ateşi hastalığı nedeniyle insanlar son yıllarda kene ve diğer artropod enfestasyonlarına karşı daha duyarlı hale gelmişlerdir. Bu yüzden, keneler, bulaştırdıkları hastalıklar ve korunma yolları ile halkın bilgilendirmesinin doğru olacağı düşünülmektedir
